The last expedition which set out from Key
West to free Cuba from the grip of Spanish
tyranny has come to grief 1t consisted of four
men who swan ashore near Matanzas from
small sailing vessel. They were armed to
the teeth, and doubtless were brave men and
true but few soldiers soon scattered them.
The incident is a fair illustration of the con-
spicuous folly which the average Cuban patriot
can be guilty of.
The Republican primaries passed of last
night in an orderly manner and an excellent
lot of delegates were elected to attend the
State Convention. Among them are such men
as Senator Evarts, the Hon. Levi p. Morton,
Ex-Governor Cornell and Congressman Fitch.
The most interesting incident of the evening
was the failure of Captain Michael Cregan to
make disturbance of any kind in the XVIth
District, where q sharp contest had been an
iicipated. The counsels that prevailed were
Mise.
The British Government has at last posi-
lively assumed the position that Behring Sea
is not within the control of the United States,
ond that American seizures of British vessels
there, unless within the threc-mc limit, are
not legal. twas also announced in the House
OF Commons. last night, that our Government
had ordcrd no more vessels to be interfered
with in Alaskan waters until present compli-
cations wcro settled. This is truly amiable
and obliging attitude for the Administration
In Washington to assume Does anyone
suppose that Canada will reciprocate?

Every one viii admit with pleasure that
great deal OF good has been done by the
society especially among children. In a
number of States the evils of intcmperance
have been clearly presented to them by
teachers in the public and in the Sunday
schools. Probably no better means could be
taken, if the training at home supplements the
teachers work. to raise up temperate gen.

con jugal yoke prevents them from Great
ing great works"
Moore has expressed the same belief,
asserting that in looking back through
the lives of the most lllustrious poets
it is evident that they have been, With
scarcely an exception, ''restless and soil
tary spirits, with minaa wrapped up, like
sikworms, in their own tasks, either
strangers or rebls to the domestic tie.'
Dante, Milton, Shakespeare, and Dry
den are instances of the saddening effect
of married life upon poets. Dante vent
through life away from his wife and
children, nursing in his mind the immor-
tai dream of Beatrice. There is in that
o.t-told jest of Dryden, which sufficiently
exhibits his view of the subject; when
his wife told him that she wished she
we're book, in order that she might have
more of her husbands companionship,
he said:
BE an almanac, my love, SO that / can
change you every year"
SCOTS remark about Dryden was that
''on no occasion when scarcasm against
matrimeny would be introduced has he
failed to season 1t with such bitterness
as spoke of an inward consciousness of
QOnlO9lit AiiSDA
But the same is true of other artists as
well-of musicians and painters as well
as poets. Wagner, when a young man,
married an actress, "pretty as picture"
but she appears to have had but little
sympathy with his aims and he lived apart
from her. He afterward married a
daughter of Liszt, who did appreciate his
genius, and with her he was very happy.
The girl whom Haydn married turned
out shrew. Berlioz wrote: 30, that |
could find her, the Juliet, the Ophelia
that my heart calls to, that | conld drink
in the intoxication OF mingled Joy and
sadness that only true love knows Gould
but rest in her arms one autumn even
ing, rocked by the north wind on some
wild heath, and sleeping my last sad
sleep!"
We are told that a few years after these
offusions were written lie arranged an
amicable separation from his wife, his
former divinity and he left her TO die in
misery and solitude.
Handel was never in love and had an
aversion to marriage. In 1907 be went
to Lubbock to complete for position as
organist, but finding that one of the con
ditions of obtaining the place was that
he should marry the daughter OF his pre-
decessor, he fed precipitately.

That gallant solaie. at once forwarded
the fair spy TO Beauregard whose head
quarters were then az Centerville. Her
baggage consisted only OF pet Skve

On arriving she was ushered into the
presence of the general, and with true
womanly vo'ubility proceeded to euter-
tain him with description of her ad
ventures, and their result Beauregard
patiently allowed the lingual freshet to
flow on, naturally supposing that when
she got tired she would produce the dis
patches. But the little woman's tongue
was hung in the middle and wagged at
both ends, and moreover, she was too
pretty to be silenoed abruptly. Finally
the general, unable to restrain his anxiety
any longer said;

able TO conceal MS chagrin, frankly told

proved OF little use, She listened to his
scolding with a demure air, ANA when he

ohevious twinkle in her eye and called to
her dog:

duced. Then she turned the animal over
ON it's back, and 70 the amazement of
Beauregard, deliberately proceeded TO
rip him open. In less time than IL takes
to tell it, shs held in one hand the pre-
cious papers, and in the other the skin of
the Skye terrier, while pranoing about

sewed her dispatches between the two
skins in manner that dehed detection,

yideties, had carried some of the most
important information transmitted
during tho war. n is needless 20 say
that Beauregard was delighted, and IL

lightning Rods no Good.

A st Louis Electrician, Tho sudden
ness with which lightning rods have.
fallCn into disuse ia rather curious fact i.
A few years since, every business house
and private residence was bristling with
rods and points, while tho lightning rod
agent was the most intolorable nuisance
that ever imposed upon the public. IL
DR.. Benjamin Franklin, who discovered
the identity of lightning and thon in
vented the lightning rod W ers now alive,
he would throw up his hands in horror,
II was formerly thought that the rod WAS
n genuine protection 20 houses, and for
years people labored under this dclusion,
Bat the fact il that the rod is not ne
oessity, and Ia oftednmes source of
positive danger. A residence'or business
house is just about as safe in storm
without rod as with one, and the people
of this generation have learned this fact.
An invention that is not usesul or prac-
teal il not tolerated nowadays, and 80
the lightning rod has wel.nigh become
extinct. In post years its manufacture
was Il great industry, but oiaor electrical
machines and appliances, OF recent birth
and of greater value, have supplanted the
rod aud driven 10 into general disuse and
obscurity. Nor can | say that | am sorry
20 see the lightning rod go, Tor it hum
plugged tho American people nearly 100
years ago.

A Famous Amazonian Warrior

People just now in Con-
stantinopie are interested in the
presence among them of Kara Fatma,
the redoubtable female warrior of Kurdi-
stan, who has come on brief visit to the
Turkish capital. Her deeds of prowess
date back to the beginning of the .Cri-
mean var when she let large body of
Kurdish volunteers, who fought with
singular daring for Turkey. The Otto
man government remembers her services
and requiets these by monthly pension
of 5000 piasters, sum that in her own
frugal home allows her to live with ease.
She is tall, thin, with ab rown hawklike
face; her cheeks are the color of psrch-
ment, and scanned with scars. Wearing
the national dress of the sterner sex she
looks like man of 40, not like woman
who will never again see 10. Slung
across her shoulders in Cossack fashion,
is her long sabre; with its jeweled hilt:
decorations shine and sparkle on her
breast, while TIE stripes across her sleeve
show her to be captain in the Ottoman
army. Watching this interesting figure
pass along the streets of STEAMBOAT one is
reminded of an episode in the campaign
of General Lespinasse in the DOorudia in
the Ciimea. While smoking and chatting
one day in his tent with several of his
brother officers, the general heard at q
far distance a strange music,a medly Of
drums and clarinets, tomtoms and pierre
ing human cries. Whence came this
wierd minstrelsy? All the men in camp
turned out TO listen to it and discern its
origin, when from over the hills they saw
a baud of some 300 horsemsn approach
ing them at full gallop. AT their head
rode a brown faced woman with flashing
eyes and lithsome limbs, the very picture
of an Amazon. Yaultiug from her saddle
she graYely saluted General Lespinasse,
and through an interpreter told him she
had come to fight the Russians, both she
and her brave Kurds being completely
at his service. That night her men we're
quartered in camp with the French troop
but they were i'll pleased to be so billeted.
They wanted their Independence and not
even their mistress and leader should
barter it away for them. BY daybreak
they were in their saddles riding off
across the hills 20 meet the dawn, TO the
sounds of that wierd, strident music
which had proclaimed their approach.
